2012 Ford Explorer Heater Hoses

Providing reliable service in applications requiring molded hoses in small diameters, the Dayco small I.D. heater hose is designed to replace OEM coolant hoses. Made with the same bends and routing as the original assembly, this molded hose is meant to fit the vehicle precisely. The knitted reinforcement and synthetic EPDM construction provide high-strength performance and resistance to detrimental environmental elements, coolants and temperature variations of -40°F (-40°C) to +257°F (+125°C) and the “quick connect” end allows for fast, convenient installation.

Product Features:

• Meets the requirements of SAE J20R3, Class D-1
• Designed to meet Type EC electro-chemical requirements as specified in SAE J1684, which prevents inner tube deterioration caused by the build-up of static electric charges
• Engineered as an OEM replacement
• The knitted polyester reinforcement provides high burst strength and resists degradation from temperature extremes and moisture

Original equipment HVAC heater hose assemblies often fail due to cracks in the plastic T-connector. This Dorman OE FIX replacement features an upgraded aluminum T-connector to prevent similar failures in the future.
